    Bone-in beef noodle soup
    Kevin C.

    When you first enter the restaurant, you can smell that it's a noodle house because aromatic broth just hits your nostrils. Inside was hustlin and bustlin with lots of "gentle" commotion. The waitress who took our order was extremely friendly, almost like she was one of the relatives just having a casual conversation on a weekend. Felt home-y. She gave us recommendations based on our preferences (and it being all of our first time's). The spice there is no joke; it's the Sichuan style spice so order accordingly. When my bowl arrived, I'll admit that I was nervous because it was a lot of food. There was sooooo much noodles (which is good thing), bok choy, and two massive beef ribs bathing in an incredible savory spicy broth. It's hard to describe the flavor of the broth, but it was rich, clean, and packed with beefy/herby(?) flavor. Delicious! I gave it a 4 star (would be 4.5 if I could) because my ribs didn't have much meat on them compared to other's who ordered it and there wasn't too much variety on the menu. It was affordable and filling. Overall, I'd recommend this place if you're looking for a soothing bowl of noodles!

    This restaurant opened fairly recently, so I decided to give it a try. The menu is pretty straightforward with a limited selection of items. From what I understand, drinks are only $1 before 12 PM, and after 5 PM, their noodle dishes are $9.95. I ordered the B2 Simmered Beef Pit Brisket Noodle Soup with medium spice. The broth looked simple, but it had a nice sweetness from the daikon. The medium spice level wasn't spicy to me at all, though! The brisket was tender, and they provided a dipping sauce that paired well with the meat. I chose the hor fun noodles, and the portion was surprisingly generous. The service was quick and efficient. One of the employees from the previous restaurant is still working there, and she's always so friendly and sweet. Overall, I enjoyed the food, but I probably wouldn't return. It's just not the type of cuisine I typically crave or seek out, even though I thought the meal itself was good.

    Got the B8 (bean sauce and pork noodle) and B1 (sichuan spicy beef noodle soup). Ordered both as medium spicy-neither were spicy at all. They do have chili oil and sriracha on the side to add if needed. Meat was tender on the B1. For the B8, it came with a separate bowl of broth that was a bit salty-didn't seem to add much to the noodles. Portions were pretty big for the price, not too much meat though. Clean and easy parking though-they're right across from Asian Pearl. Something different to try if you're in the mood for noodles!

    Tried the newly opened Ken's Noodle House Bone-in Beef Noodle Soup - The homemade noodles had a great chewy texture and paired perfectly with the broth. The bone in beef was good too Pig Liver Noodle Soup - A bit underwhelming for me. The Hong Kong-style thin noodles were nice, but the broth lacked the depth of flavor. The pig liver is not as good as expected. But the staff is nice and friendly

    I really like coming here for their noodles and I like it in the beef brisket with clear broth has really nice daikon and you can pick your own noodle. . I love how the broth has no MSG and it's really clear also it's umami too. . I like coming here for their soft opening deal for the month of May 2026 for their 9.99 noodle bowl from 4pm to 730pm daily. . The pork intestine and sour veggie soup is another favorite. I like their fresh rice noodle which is nice and light and slippery texture. The ramen here is hand pulled egg noodles in house. They even have the thin egg noodles too. After finishing your noodles, free of charge to request more or ask for another noodle to try. . Ambiance here is casual and cozy. Fast place to eat and go. Good pricing. Great parking spots. Service is family friendly. Great for groups. Thanks for reading and have a yelptastic day. Hope this review helps.

    Decided to try this spot on a Sunday, it was not busy and we were seated immediately. We thought this was a pho restaurant but when we got seated, we realized that it was a Chinese noodle restaurant. We ended up ordering B4, B5, B8, and the pig ears to share as an appetizer. B4 was delicious, highly recommend, however B5 was a Miss. the pork liver texture was off and tasted very undercooked. The noodles were a bit too thick that it didn't soak the flavors of the broth. B8 was ok but flavors didn't stand out. Same with the pig ears. It was a bit bland so it didn't stand out to me. Overall, if I were to come again, I would try the beef noodle soup.

    The beef rib noodle soup was one of the most satisfying bowls I have had in a while. The ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender, the broth was rich without M.S.G. added. Great customer service, I will definitely  come back

    Saw this place after leaving SF market and decided to give it a try. Entered on a random Weds evening and it was pretty empty. Got seated immediately and we got B1 (spicy beef noodle soup) and B3 (bone in beef noodle soup). Let me tell you, one of the most elite beef noodle soups ive ever had (and trust me, we've been around the block lol). You could smell the delicious broth before your bowls even hit the table, very tasty and concentrated flavor, in combination with the beef itself is SOOO tender, juicy, and literally melts in your mouth! The medium spice level is perfect, very subtle heat but has a considerable kick. Inside was clean and roomy, plenty of seating for almost 60+ people. Will def be coming back for more! 他們也說中文! So thats a bonus ;) On top of all that, this place is extremely generous with the noodles! We got the refill and it is basically a whole serving worth of it! I was expecting at least maybe half of the serving we originally got

    Bone in Beef Noodle Soup with house made Ramen
    Connie B.

    I came on a Sunday afternoon and it was already quite busy with a almost a full house. Thankfully there was still a table so my party was able to be seated quickly. The service was quick and honestly I did think they are a decent size and their aesthetic is cool but the food was mediocre. Their bone in beef noodle soup was alright. The meat was a bit tough but the soup itself had great flavor. I just would never crave this and the rest of the menu is lackluster which is why it gets a 3 star for me. The simmered beef brisket noodle soup was quite bland. I added some chili oil and the whole soy sauce they gave on the side but it was still missing more salt. Also the brisket was quite tough and I could not chew through more than have the pieces and I enjoy eating things like intestines and tendons too. Sadly I would not be coming back but it may be for some people craving this style of noodle soup.

    Intestine soup, spicy beef noodle soup

    My partner and I decided to try out Ken's Noodle House as we saw there was a grand opening sign outside. We arrived for a late lunch on a Friday and there were plenty of tables for us. The moment we walked in, we were kindly greeted by staff and sat in a table. They brought out the menu and cold waters for us as we sat down. The decor of the restaurant was nice and modern, very spacious and perfect for any size groups! The restaurant specializes in Chinese/Taiwanese noodles like beef noodle soup and popular appetizers. With each noodle soup, you have the option to choose from: ho fun (fat rice noodles), HK style noodles, and a third option which I am forgetting...They also let you add extra noodles free of charge if you're able to finish it. We ended up ordering the spicy beef noodle soup (mild) with HK noodles and intestine noodle soup (mild) with ho fun. Without ordering extra noodles, the bowls were already so stacked and generous with noodle and meat portions. The beef was tender and flavorful, my partner enjoyed his bowl. I will go back again and again for the intestine soup -- I don't know of any other place that makes an authentic bowl like this!

    Great place for noodles. This place replaced the old pho place at the same location. Guess they inherited all the restaurant equipment The inside ambience is well renovated, every looks new. Food quality is good. You can tell they really care about noodles. Price is average, decent portion size Staff are overall friendly. Easy to chat with. Will definitely come back again to this noodle house!

    Sichaun beef with hand made ramen
    Isabel T.

    Came around 12 on sunday. Parking was okay but it gets busier as it gets later. I believe they had a 1$ drink before 12 deal, they had a sign but took it away. We ordered B1 mild and B2 (clear broth) no spicy, both 12.95, total around 30$. Came out prettyy quick, like less than 10 minutes. First glance, toppings to noodle ratio way off, 1.5 piece of bokchoy, 5-6 small pieces of meat, and a little bean sprouts. Soooo much noodle idek if i ate half of it. The meat in mine was pretty tender, i dont like that most of it is the collagen part, tasted weird. The beef brisket/stew was not tender tho. Taste it pretty good for both broths. We also got the supposed hand/housemade ramen, but it didnt seem handpulled or wtv at all? Reminded me of spaghetti noodles or smth Not much service tbh, they werent rude but not friendly. Overall, cheap but not that great. Not enough meat or veggie way too much noodle, not a fan of eating straight carbs.

    Sichuan spicy noodles
    Ken S.

    Very good noodles, I got super spicy Sichuan beef noodles. Spice hits the spot for me. Might be a bit too spicy for others. Got their milk tea too. I'll skip it next time.

    Soup had too much noodles, hardly any vegetables and the ribs were tough. It was my first time dining there and will definitely be my last.

The noodles were thick rice noodles which went well with the meat and broth. There is a self serve condiment bar to add cilantro, green onions, peanuts, bamboo shoots, chili oil, and various pickled vegetables. I really enjoyed selecting and adding my own condiments to my dish. Orders are placed at the counter. There is self serve water. The workers speak very little English so asking questions is very difficult. There are lots of different noddle and meat dishes that come with broth on the side which I would like to try in the future. It was moderately busy on a weekday during lunch time. Tables are arranged in rows so it seems like separate customers may sit at the same table.

The soy/vinegar and chili oil they give for dipping is so good and hits that perfect note between salty/tangy/spicy.
